An admonition that the pope has revoked all the previous indulgences to the congregation, and that in order to obtain them again they must have this current publication and also acquire the Bula de la Santa Cruzada. This granting or withholding of indulgences was a key means of regulating the local populace, as they were seen as a way to reduce the amount of punishment one had to undergo for sins, and they may reduce the temporal punishment after death, in the state or process of purification called Purgatory. OCLC/WorldCat lists four copies of this document.
Condition
Some staining to lower portions of a few leaves, a marginal worm track, else very good.
